It offers the necessary tools to navigate today's eCommerce landscape, allowing businesses to accept payments on their own terms.

Authorize.net Merchant Processing
Unlike traditional payment processing, Authorize.net payment gateways offer instant card approval or denial. This advanced processing technology can approve transactions within seconds. In eCommerce card-not-present transactions, the payment gateway aids in preventing fraudulent transactions.
How Does Authorize.net Payment Gateway Work?
Authorize.net's payment gateway simplifies payment processing in three steps:
Authorize.net determines whether the transaction can be authorized by checking for ample funds.
Money is captured from the bank, placing a hold on the funds.
Settlement occurs, transferring money from the customer's bank to the merchant's bank.
Merchants using Authorize.net gain access to a virtual dashboard, protected by a secure login. This dashboard allows control over every aspect of the payment gateway, including:
- Activating selected features
- Reviewing orders
- Tracking inventory with low inventory alerts
- Using a convenient invoice numbering system
